The AliExpress search term for similar devices is "trigger board" or "decoy board."

I'm seeing them as low as ~10/$.

Have these gotten mature enough to actually use? A few years ago, every single one I tested would just give you a different voltage if it couldn't trigger the correct voltage, which is obviously terrible.

They go to the next lowest voltage, because some PD capable supplies don't provide all the voltages. Most are missing 12V, unfortunately.

My experience is good so far with them, but it's good to get a couple of automobile lights to wire in series or parallel to load them.

As the saying goes: "With Ali Express you test, don't guess!"

The electronics are small enough to put into a USBC connector -- which is also a handy form factor:
